Aye finding players that could be tricky but I suggest from the closest people first. Don't give up early since once you get it going and find some regulars then you are getting in going regularly :03:

Depending on your situation and type of board game that would mean expanding from spouse, family, parents, relatives or close friends then on to friend's friends or spouse friends or even parents' friends(don't forget good neighbors).

I even consider playing with less fortunate people not a bad idea such as the orphans, or pensioners and I believe board game is a good education and behavior teaching for troubled people such juvenile teens, etc. The sense of belonging and laughing together and cooperating when applicable depending on the game can teach troubled people that they are not as alone as once they thought.


Aye my impression exactly. The game is not scary at all :nope:. Honestly we didn't laugh as often and as loud as when we played other games such as Shogun or BattleStar Galactica(but laughing together seems to have been the heroin of board gaming which is always a good thing). So I find Arkham Horror a little on the serious game side but my gaming group seemed to enjoy it as it is a cooperative game so I'm considering to buy a big box expansion, the Dunwich horror to be exact to increase the challenge a bit :).

Anything can be turned into a drinking game... including dancing or removing one's own shoes (<- bonus points for socks). :yeah:

He meant party games I must assume

Sure there are plenty

Apples to apples I heard that one is a sure winner for all kind of people.

I remembered an ex-girlfriend trying to remove her shoes after a night out. Even funnier in hindsight. :DL

:spammm: :DL

Sorry mate. I'll just slink back to my usual lurkitude. :DL

I've played Arkham Horror twice (and both times, we won!!).

I also played Battlestar Galacta, and lost. As a human.

Nice and simple yet complex.

Personally I prefer BattleStar Galactica than Arkham Horror. There bound to be some seriously funny moments playing that :D.

Moreover I found Arkham Horror at least without any expansion easier than Battlestar Galactica which difficulty I prefer to have. Both are good and enjoyable though.

Thanks for letting us know.

For simple yet deep competitive I game I really like this http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/20551/shogun
Don't be fooled by its theme if you found it not amusing, it's a great game and it's an Euro which means logic prevails and it has got no dice.
The uncertainty, the strategic planning in that kind of uncertainty and trying to guess your opponent moves and intentions and use them to your advantage where possible, this game is so addicting. You'll be rewarded handsomely when you are able to figure what your opponents are planning to do. and the uncertainty until all is revealed is what made this game imo a brilliantly designed game! So simple yet so deep!
